Sally grew 18 flowers with 9 seed packets. How many seed packets does Sally need to have a
total of 44 flowers in her garden? Assume the relationship is directly proportional.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

22 seed packets

Step-by-step explanation:

we can look at this in a couple of ways. the first way to solve this is an algebraic problem. we know that 18 flowers came from 9 packets so 18 is going to be on one side of the equation while 9 is going to be on the other. we dont know how many seeds were in each packet though so we will use x to represent the amount of seeds. now our equation looks like this: 18 = 9x. heres how to solve it:

given: 18 = 9x

to get x alone we divide each side by 9 because its the opposite of muliplication: 2 = x

answer: x = 2 seeds per packet

another way we could figure this out is by using proportions. when we see the ratio flowers to packet is 18:9, we can tell that it needs to be simplified. we know both 9 and 18 are divisible by 9 so when we do that we get the answer, our ratio of flowers to packets is 2:1.

next, we need to look back at how we solved that problem we just did, and plug in our new numbers. when doing it algebraically, we follow these steps:

plug in: 44 = (x)2

x times 2 is equal to 2x: 44 = 2x

to get x alone divide each side by 2 because its the opposite of multiplication: 22 = x

answer: x = 22

if we want to solve it using ratios and proportionalities, we set it up flowers to packets like before so we have the ratio 44:x. seeing that the ratio was 2:1 last time, we know that 44 is 2 times x, or x is 1/2 (half) of 44. so we can find half of 44 to get x. half of 44 is 22 so 44:22 is the ratio's answer.

i hope this helped :))

Answers

Answer:

There are 32 students.

Step-by-step explanation:

If there are six 8-slice pizzas, that means that there is 48 slices total. If each student ate 1 1/2 slices, you can divide 48 and 1.5, and you will get 32. That is the number of students in the class. Hope this helps!

Enter the equation of the line in slope-intercept form. Slope is − 2/3 and (-9,5) is on the line. The equation of the line is y=?

Answers

Answer:

The equation is y = 2/3x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

To build the equation, we know the slope is -2/3, so that is done for us already. Now we just need the y-intercept, which is -1, which is the only way to get it to cross the point (-9, 5). So, the equation would be y = 2/3x - 1, while still meeting all of the qualifications. I hope this helps, and I hope it's not right, but I do not think it is.

a water balloon was thrown from the window. The height of the water balloon over time can be modeled by the function y=-16square2+160x+50

Answers

The maximum height of the water balloon : 450 m

Further explanation  

Quadratic function is a function that has the term x²  

The quadratic function forms a parabolic curve  

The general formula is  

f (x) = ax² + bx + c  

where a, b, and c are real numbers and a ≠ 0.  

The parabolic curve can be opened up or down determined from the value of a. If a is positive, the parabolic curve opens up and has a minimum value. If a is negative, the parabolic curve opens down and has a maximum value  

So the maximum is if a <0 and the minimum if a> 0.  

The formula for finding the coordinates of the maximum and minimum points of the quadratic function is the same.  

The maximum / minimum point of the quadratic function is  

[tex]\rm -\dfrac{b}{2a},-\dfrac{D}{4a}[/tex]

Where  

D = b²-4ac  

The function h (t) = -16x²+160x+50

so the value of a <0, then it has a maximum value  

Because we are looking for maximum height, then we find the value of the y coordinate, with the formula  

[tex]\rm -\dfrac{D}{4a}[/tex]

Questions we might add :

What was the maximum height of the water balloon after it was thrown?

We can also use the first derivative of the above function to find the maximum value

[tex]\tt h'=0=-32x+160\\\\-32x=-160\\\\x=5[/tex]

input to function :

[tex]\tt h=-16x^2+160x+50\\\\h=-16(5^2)+160(5)+50\\\\h=-400+800+50=\boxed{\bold{450~m}}[/tex]

I need help with #6 & #7 !!

Answers

Answer:

6 is b, 7 is c

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

#6 wants you to find out what answer from the 4 expressions gives you the least or smallest number. For #7, you need to follow PEMDAS in order to get the right answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

#6, the answers you get are 8, -9, -3, and 9. You need to choose the smallest number. Negative numbers are smaller than positive numbers, so you can immediately eliminate 8 and 9. You have to be careful when comparing negative numbers because the larger negative number is actually smaller than the smaller negative number since it is further away from the zero. So, negative -9 would be smaller than -3 in this case.

#7, I would divide the -720/12 first. This results in -60. Then, divide the -60 by -10. This gives you an answer of positive 6.

Explain how you know. 3/7 is the constant of proportionality.

Answers

Answer:

x = 3/7

Step-by-step explanation:

Red paint : White paint = 3 cups : 7 cups

How many cups of red paint should be added to 1 cup of white paint

Red paint : White paint = x cups : 1 cup

Equate the ratios

3 cups : 7 cups = x cups : 1 cup

3 / 7 = x / 1

Cross product

3 * 1 = 7 * x

3 = 7x

Divide both sides by 7

x = 3 / 7

Number of cups of cups of red paint that should be added to 1 cup of white paint is 3/7

I did this by representing the unknown number of cups of red paint with x and equating the two ratios

Read the passages about Queen Victoria. Passage 1: Queen Victoria by E. Gordon BrowneOn the 1st of December the Queen felt anxious and depressed. Her husband grew worse and could not take food without considerable difficulty, and this made him very weak and irritable.The physicians in attendance were now obliged to tell her that the illness was low fever, but that the patient himself was not to know of this. The Ministers became alarmed at his state, and when the news of his illness became public there was the greatest and most universal anxiety for news.In spite of slight improvements from time to time, the Prince showed no power of fighting the disease, and on the evening of the 14th December he passed gently away.It is no exaggeration to say that the death of the Queen's beloved husband saddened every home in the land; it was a sorrow felt equally by the highest and the lowest. He died in the fulness of his manhood, leaving her whom he had loved and guarded so tenderly to reign in lonely splendour.Passage 2: Queen Victoria by Giles Lytton StracheyOn the morning of December 14, Albert, just as she had expected, seemed to be better; perhaps the crisis was over. But in the course of the day there was a serious relapse. Then at last she allowed herself to see that she was standing on the edge of an appalling gulf. The whole family was summoned, and, one after another, the children took a silent farewell of their father. "It was a terrible moment," Victoria wrote in her diary, "but, thank God! I was able to command myself, and to be perfectly calm, and remained sitting by his side." He murmured something, but she could not hear what it was; she thought he was speaking in French. Then all at once he began to arrange his hair, "just as he used to do when well and he was dressing." "Es kleines Frauchen," she whispered to him; and he seemed to understand. For a moment, towards the evening, she went into another room, but was immediately called back; she saw at a glance that a ghastly change had taken place.
